چکیده

This paper presents a novel Real-Time Localisation System (RTLS) based upon 2.45 GHz Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems. The system utilises a novel localisation method that combines the angular rotation of the RFID reader’s antenna system with the inherent Time-of-Flight (TOF) distance measurement capabilities of the SAW RFID system. The system design rests upon the sound physical fundamentals of electromagnetic radiation and SAW operation. The system was implemented and empirically evaluated. It was determined to provide accurate 2-Dimensional (2D) location of the SAW tag that is within 3.17 cm of the actual location for a reader to tag range of up to 10 m.

A compact stacked Quasi-fractal microstrip antenna for RFID applications

In this paper, we propose a new compact quasi-fractal shaped microstrip antenna that consists of a hexagonal patch as the main radiator and a complementary stacked patch as the parasitic element. The overall surface of the proposed quasi-fractal patch is about 55% lower than the conventional hexagonal patch. Using of stacked technique, the gain reduction of compression technique is almost compe...

PATL: A RFID Tag Localization based on Phased Array Antenna

In RFID systems, how to detect the position precisely is an important and challenging research topic. In this paper, we propose a range-free 2D tag localization method based on phased array antenna, called PATL. This method takes advantage of the adjustable radiation angle of the phased array antenna to scan the surveillance region in turns. By using the statistics of the tags' number in differ...

Dual-band RFID tag antenna based on the Hilbert-curve fractal for HF and UHF applications

A novel single-radiator card-type tag is proposed which is constructed using a series Hilbert-curve loop and matched stub for high frequency (HF)/ultra high frequency (UHF) dual-band radio frequency identification (RFID) positioning applications. This is achieved by merging the series Hilbert-curve for implementing the HF coil antenna, and square loop structure for implementing the UHF antenna ...

Navigating the Corridors of Power : Using RFID and Compass Sensors for Robot Localisation and Navigation

Localisation and navigation are still two of the most important issues in mobile robotics. In certain indoor application scenarios Radio frequency identification (RFID) based absoloute localisation has been found to be especially successful in supporting navigation. In this paper we examine the feasibility of an RFID and compass based approach to robot localisation and navigation for indoor env...

Reconfigurable Antenna for RFID Reader and Notched UWB Applications Using DTO Algorithm

In this article, the approach involving Dynamic Threshold Optimization (DTO) algorithm is considered to optimize a new compact reconfigurable antenna to be applied to triple band Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and to ultra wideband (UWB) antenna with multiple bands notched. The antenna is implemented by using the existing techniques, such as loading an L-type band-stop filter, inserting ...
